Become a member of the Square Earth Society

 

With all of the construction projects at Full Circle Farm, it could be easy to overlook the most important structure on the farm – the soil. An inch of topsoil can take up to 500 years or longer to form and a square foot of topsoil contains millions of microorganisms (if healthy). Effective immediately, I would like to offer you the opportunity to sponsor your own square foot of soil at Full Circle Farm. Ten bucks a square foot seems like a nice starting bid for your special piece of real estate. Your name will be enshrined on our website as a member of the “Square Earth Society.”

Do you have excess fruit on your trees this season? Don’t have the time, or know how to harvest it all, or know what to do with it?

Let Full Circle Farm Glean Team come help you! Contact Rose, (rose@fullcirclesunnyvale.org) with your fruit tree type/s, location, and when you think is a good time to come by and harvest.

We send an experienced crew of fruit harvesters, armed with ladders, fruit pickers, and harvest crates. We are respectful, tidy, and quiet. We can pick as much of your fruit as you would like, leave as much as you want behind, and take away any rotten or fallen fruit for composting. Donated fruit goes to support our CSA Program, Farm Stand, and local food banks. Donors receive $5.00 Farm Stand coupon for their service to the non-profit and donation letter (per request). We are very grateful and honored to facilitate the distribution of abundant harvests!

email Rose, rose@fullcirclesunnyvale.org, to schedule a date/time for the Glean Team to come by your residence.
